Centennial Project "Rivadavia Participativa"

The Centennial Project "Rivadavia Participativa" is intended to create plans to promote citizen organization and participation in order to develop a shared vision of their own destiny as a society. The objective of the project was to promote a concerted and consensual planning space, promoting the participation and cooperation of civil society associations and of the neighbors in the constitution of a common identity for the locality. To this end, a series of Open Town Halls, District Town Halls and Thematic Town Halls were organized in representative institutions of each zone, where mailboxes were set up and different deliberative and informative instances were made for the evaluation of problems, opportunities and suggestions. Based on these contributions, a Charter of commitments assumed by the municipal government was developed, which serves to guide and promote the common good, to promote pluralism and a necessary consensus, in order to strengthen the identity of the City. Likewise, a Receptive Bank of Productive, Social and Cultural Projects for the Development of Rivadavia and a Nursery of Productive Enterprises was implemented, according to the priorities and projects selected from the experience.
